"Viviane" wrote in message u... One of the drawers is slightly bigger than the other so you can get bigger items in. Can't remember which but I think it's the bottom one. Edwin raised a good point. I suppose it's just a hunch that metal is stronger. Also the plastic inside looks fragile. It's just a gut instinct thing - not based on any scientific research! The spray arms must pas a lot of hot water. Take a look at the radiator in your car. The hoses are a rubber/plastic compound and take heat and pressure far greater than any dishwasher. Metal costs more but it will not perform any better in real use. -- Ed http://pages.cthome.net/edhome/ |

Hi Bill,
I have the F& P Double dish drawers. For the record, the top and bottom are the same size contrary to what people are saying here. Drying is never a problem. As a matter of fact, when the load is done, the dishes are VERY hot. The coffee cups I have are a little indented on the bottom, so some water does collect there sometimes. I love them. It seems to fit SO many more things than my old Maytag. I love having two utensil baskets. What's cool too, is that things that are "top rack safe only" can go anywhere and in top or bottom drawer(I called the company to confirm). I was worried at first about getting a dishwasher withOUT a food disposer (since my old one had one and I NEVER rinse my dishes). This has never been a problem! I remove big pieces of food off the dishes, but never rinse and they still come clean! It's true, very large platters may not fit, but so what-everything else does. ![]() I don't know anything about the kitchenaide ones. |
